I shared a lot of people's feeling the second album didn't really "end", it just kinda tapered off. The Tower is the kind of song that should've capped off the whole thing. Instead the two albums are more like a bell curve with the first one ending on a great song and the second one opening with a great song. Fairyland is ex Dark Moor, right? Is that song from their first album? can't hate on avantasia at all. not a huge fan of tobias vocals, but the guests are usually on point. Jorn to be specific. has pipes. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 10,2016 4:02pm - Mark_R ""] Jorn is generally great but I gotta say his first Avantasia appearance was his low point to my ears. I think he got better on the next few (as the overall album quality continued to decline), but something went wrong with his voice or the recording of his part on The Scarecrow. My fave singer that I was introduced to via Avantasia is Bob Catley. |

My fave singer that I was introduced to via Avantasia is Bob Catley. i don't disagree regarding the scarecrow. i thought the high point was his appearance on the wicked symphony. i also thought his stuff with masterplan was good at times, though the lyrics were facepalming in nature. specifically on the song 'spirit never die' though i've looked past the verse lyrics because the chorus is pretty powerful in that cheesy way that many including myself enjoy. |

Yeah that song in particular is one of the standouts of the past ~15 years in power metal. |
